Congress and BJP left no stone unturned to woo the voters as both the national parties fielded their star campaigners in poll-bound states Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. From Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress President Rahul Gandhi, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, BJP President Amit Shah to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, several prominent leaders addressed public rallies and organised road shows. They freely exchanged barbs and traded charges against each other, which raised the political temperature in the states. Addressing a rally in Rajasthan, PM Modi accused the Congress party of not doing enough for the development of rural areas and farmers during their rule. "The previous Congress government could have implemented better MSP and crop insurance scheme, but they could not see beyond chair. Four generations of Congress family ruled this country for 55 years but electricity, water, roads, toilets never reached villages," the prime minister said. He also assured people that every Indian would own a home by 2022. On the other hand, Rahul Gandhi targeted BJP and PM Modi over Rafale deal, demonetisation, GST, unemployment and other developmental issues. He promised to waive the farm loans within 10 days of coming into power. However, the election campaign came to the end in Mizoram and Madhya Pradesh, where voting will be held on 28 November while Rajasthan will go to the polls on 7 December. (PTI)
